The Mountain Goats - Protein Source of the Future… Now!

Going to Tennessee

Baseball season will be starting soon
But we have no baseball team here
I've got a house right on the river
I can see Arkansas from where I am

The dogs are gathered
And the birds are chattering
And the sun is setting on Memphis

And the sun is setting on Memphis
Medicine bottle collection on the window sill
Shakes when the cars go past on interstate fifty-five
You are standing above me
You've washed your face with that apricot scrub again
I'm glad I'm alive
And your skin is warming up
And my skin is warming up
And the sun is setting on Memphis
And the sun is setting on Memphis
